Ft. Lauderdale Marina to Pull a Mast?

Playboy might be my best bet. $225/hr to step/unstep, and only $4/day for mast storage. Plus it's cheap for a short haulout and some bottom work.

Anybody have a better idea?

And can anyone recommend a really good rigger in the area with reasonable rates?

Ah, you mean boat yard, not marina.

We had a good haul out at Playboy and would recommend them. We needed a crane and it got there on short notice, no problems.

cheers,
Nick.

Yes, it's definitely a boat yard. This would be my second visit there... no problems the first time.

Thanks, Nick.

I don't want to recommend anybody, but if I were to haul out and pull a mast this far south it would be Playboy. They are an Oasis surrounded by sharks. A particularly moody and nasty shark just west of them.
